Hey,
Just wondering if any Runkepper users had enabled Pocket Track and as to the reliability of it? I think its a feature that is only enabled if you have an iPhone 5s as it uses part of its motion processor. basically it will count walks of 15 mins or more automatically without the need to start a walking activity, kinda useful for 15 mins here n there whatever you might do.
It kinda seems accurate for me. At least on average walking pace the mileage is barely out. But since I have my rk synced to MFP ever since I enabled pocket track I get anywhere from 100-400 cals added as exercise from walking about. Just curious of others experience on it. Like today it's got me doing this. The minutes are certainly accurate. But typically I would never log my lunch break walk around shops which below is the 40,16 and 13 min one.
